When my cousins were younger I used to send gifts for Valentine‘s Day and Halloween in addition to the standard gifting holidays, and I‘m astounded that I at one time possessed the focus and time management skills to make five of these damn bracelets.

I may have gone a little overboard during a sale on the #Etsy shop Discounts For Lovely; many of these are destined for specific projects. This was also not the extent of my Etsy purchases, just the first to arrive. #jewelrymaking #charms

I got this AMAZING #LOTR necklace for a friend a while ago and I totally forgot to post about it!! The woman who makes these doesn't have a Litsy page but said that I could share. She also makes earrings, clocks, planters, and Christmas ornaments. I'll post my #HarryPotter earrings soon 😉

LeahBergen Aaaand ... I'm off to look! 😆 7y

#uniquefact: My second favorite hobby is making jewelry. I've been making stuff for years, mostly for myself and family. I may also be a bead hoarder. #augustofpages #augustphotochallenge #day14

Louise I enjoy designing jewelry too! In fact, it has changed the way I look a jewelry in stores. I notice how things are finished off, what kind of wire or thread is used, etc.! 8y
BookishMarginalia I was one too (a jewelry maker and bead hoarder). My sister and I had a necklace-making business for a couple of years. It helped us deal with the grief over our dad's death. 8y
britt_brooke @Louise Me, too! And often, I see things and think "Hey, I think can make that." ??? 8y
britt_brooke @BookishMarginalia Sounds like a fun thing to do with a sister! I am sorry to hear you lost your dad. 8y
